My son Ben went to school today dressed in his Gordon Highlander's kilt. Genuine MoD circa 1974. Even had matching flashes and real kilt hose today. The trainers look a little off, but hey, he's 14. It takes stones to wear the kilt at all around here, let alone being a 14 year old male in the 8th grade. Parent/teacher conferences are later today, and it is a "student led" conference. That means he will be doing most of the talking, and largely evaluating his own performance as a student (which is quite good, I am very proud of him).

Now, the big question is, do I wear Gordon to the conference as well, or something else ? Hmmnnn....

I am going to try to remember to snap a picture of him later. I did not get it done this morning on the way out.
